PREFACE. 

Since 1872, except in 1879, the State of New York has uniformly been carried 
by the Democrats at gubernatorial elections. Prosperity has increased through- 
out the Commonwealth , and taxes have decreased, until the rate now levied is 
the lowest known during the present generation. The policy of Tilden has been 
pursued by Robinson, Cleveland and Hill, and the people have been great 
gainers thereb}', in spite of the opposition of legislatures, Republican in both 
branches or in one branch. The question now before the voters of New York is : 
Shall the policy of Tilden be abandoned, and the opposite policy enforced by the 
election of a Republican Governor ? 

The election of Cornell was the result of Democratic dissent. The conse- 
quences to the State were seriously injurious. 

If Democrats stand together this year at the polls and sustain the harmonious 
action of the Saratoga Convention, the people will continue to reap in increasing 
degree the benefits of Democratic economy, honesty and strict accountability 
of public servants. This contest will have a strong and direct bearing upon the 
presidential campaign of next year. " As goes New York, so goes the Union." 
continues to be a sound masim of National politics. The election of a Republi- 
can G-overnor of New York this year would be regarded by the world as a pledge 
of the electoral vote of the State to the Republican ticket next year. There 
never was greater necessity for Democratic unity and vigor, with a view to the 
affairs of the country, as well as to those of the State. 

It is the object of this publication to present in concise and clear form statis- 
tical and historical facts useful to Democratic electors. There is much informa- 
tion appropriate, particularly, to the present political situation, and also much 
relating to other years with which current events are connected. The proceed- 
ings of the Saratoga Convention, its platform, the records of its candidates, and 
speeches and documents illustrating them are here collated that the reader of 
the work can inform himself as to the condition and prospects of the party, and 
State, local and Federal matters bearing upon it. The statistics have been 
compiled with great care ; the election returns are from official records, care- 
fully and deliberately verified. In this respect the book has a great advantage 
over publications hastily gotten up shortly after election, and in which inaccu- 
racies abound. The greatest pains has been taken in order to avoid the intro- 
duction of an erroneous figure, any loose statement as to matters of fact, or any 
blunder, either in the name or concerning the doings of any public man. The 
usefulness of this manual will not end with election day. It will be found val- 
uable for reference after election, not only with respect to the events of 1891, 
but with regard to the history, resources and prospects of the country, and par- 
ticularly of the State and city of New York, and the city of Brooklyn. Atten- 
tion is particularly called to the full list of party committees, and also of 
officials In the State and ir, municipal governments. 




ROSWELL P. FLOWER. 



THE PLATFORM OF NEW YORK DEM0CRATS-189i. 

First. The Democratic party of the State of New York, in convention assembled, 
renews the pledges of its fidelity to Democratic faith, and as regards National 
issues, reaffirms the doctrines of the National platforms of 1884 and 1888, indorsed 
by the popular votes of these years, and so overwhelmingly ratified by the popu- 
lar verdict in the Congressional elections of 1890. 

We now, as then, steadfastly adhere to principles of sound finance. We are 
against the coinage of any dollar which is not of the intrinsic value of every other 
dollar of the United States. We, therefore, denounce the new Sherman silver 
law, under which one-tenth of our gold stock has been exported and all our sil- 
ver output is dammed up at home, as a false pretense but artful hinderance of a 
return to free bimetallic coinage, and as tending only to produce a change from 
one kind of mono-metallism to another. We, therefore, unite with the friends of 
honest money everywhere in stigmatizing the Sherman progressive silver basis 
law as no solution of the gold and silver question, and as a fit appendix to the 
subsidy and bounty swindle, the McKinley worse-than-war tariff, the Blaine reci- 
procity humbug, the squandered surplus, the advancing deficit, the defective cen- 
sus. and the revolutionary procedures of the billion-dollar Congress — all justly con- 
demned by the people's great uprising last November, a verdict which, renewed 
next year, will empower Democratic statesmen to guide the people's councils and 
to execute the people's will. 

Second. We congratulate the people of the State upon the beneficent results 
which followed the election of a Democratic Assembly last Autumn. 

That victory secured the election of a Democrat to' the United States Senate— 
a representative in full sympathy with the popular majority on great questions 
of Federal policy. It gave the State the lowest tax rate in thirty-six years, and 
for the first time in a generation freedom from taxation for the general purposes 
of government. 

It gave New York City the means of securing rapid transit — a boon which 
Republican legislators had for two-years denied. It gave the people the shortest 
legislative session in seventeen vears, a tribute to the faithful industry of the 
Democratic Assembly, by whom this result was achieved in the interest of econ- 
omy and good legislation. 

Our pledges to the people contained in the Democratic platform of 1887, 1888 
and 1889 were promptly redeemed by the Democratic Assembly in the passage 
of the following measures : 

(1.) A bill to enumerate the inhabitants of the State preparatory to a reap- 
portionment of Senate and Assembly districts. 

(2.) A bill to reapportion the Congressional districts in pursuance of the Feder- 
al statute and upon the basis of the recent Federal Census. 

(3.) A bill to provide for a Constitutional Convention in accordance with the 
wish of the people as declared by a large majority at the polls in 1886. 

(4.) A bill to revise and consolidate the excise laws — a measure, intelligently 
and equitably framed, carefully regulating the sale of intoxicating liquors, pre- 
scribing just fees for licenses and preserving all needed restrictions for "the 
maintenance of order and the good of society. 

(5.) Several bills to ameliorate the condition of agriculture and labor and to 
lessen the burden of direct taxation. 

Third. All these measures, passed by the Democratic Assembly in obedience to 
the demand of the popular majority, were defeated in the Republican Senate by 
the representatives of the minority of the people. 

Thus has the Republican party continued to betray the people's interest. It 
defies the Constitution and denies fair representation In the Legislature to 1,300,- 
000 new inhabitants of the State by refusing to pass an enumeration bill — the 
preliminary step to the abolition of the present antiquated apportionment of 
Senate and Assembly districts which is based on the census of ten years ago. 

It not only conspired with the Federal Census Bureau to deprive the State o*. 
an additional representative in Congress and in the Electoral College by a fraudu- 
lent count of the inhabitants in New York City^but it refuses to comply with the 
command of its own Federal Congress to rearrange the thirty-four Congress dis- 
tricts of the State, so that all contain, " as nearly as practicable, an equal number 
of inhabitants. 



The Democratic Reference Book. 

It ignores the emphatic declaration of the people, who, by a plurality of 328,000 
votes, recorded themselves In favor of a constitutional convention. 

It insists upon a passage of sumptuary laws, which needlessly interfere 
with the personal liberty of law-abiding citizens. 

It demonstrates the hypocrisy of its profession by twice recording itself in 
the Legislature in favor of a prohibition amendment, and then refusing to make 
provision for its submission to the people except at a special election and at an 
unnecessary expense of over $600,000 to the taxpayers. 

It refuses to ameliorate the conditions of wage-earners by enacting just and 
conservative laws in their interest. 

It shows its subserviency to the moneyed interests by ignoring the demands 
of the agricultural and working classes for reforms in methods of taxation. 

It covertly lends its influence to the restriction of manhood suffrage. 

It indicates its hostility to home rule by its effort at meddlesome legislative 
interference with the affairs of large cities. 

It encourages expensive legislative investigating committees, whose investi- 
gations degenerate into strikes for political patronage upon the official authori- 
ties of Democratic municipalities. 

It inflicted a hostile blow upon the best welfare and prosperity of the State 
by depriving Xew York of the World's Fair because the Republican leader 
could not control its Board of Directors. 

By that act Xew York was deprived of the benefit of expenditures of hun- 
dreds of millions of dollars within its borders. By that act the interests of 
every wage earner, every merchant, every farmer, every manufacturer, every 
householder, every railroad and transportation company were cruelly sacrificed. 

The people will not forget that the most conspicuous agent in this partisan 
crime is now the candidate of his pariy for Governor. 

PLEDGES MADE. 

Fourth. Against that record^of misrepresentation and betrayal the Democratic 
party most earnestly protests. 

We reaffirm the principles and pledges contained in our State platforms of 1889 
and preceding years. 

We oppose needless special legislation. 

We favor homo rule for counties and municipalities. 

We believe in low taxes and in economical administration. 

We demand a rovision of the various statutes regulating the sale of intoxicat- 
ing liquors and the enactment of a just, equitable and comprehensive excise 
law framed in accordance with existing public sentiment as repeatedly mani- 
fested. 

We believe that all excise revenues ; whether called license fees or taxes, 
should belong to the treasuries of the localities under whose authoiity licenses 
are issued, to be applied in reducing the burden of local taxation. 

Wo are opposed" to all sumptuary legislation that needlessly interferes with 
the personal liberty or reasonable customs of the people. We favor the largest 
liberty for the individual citizen consistent with tho public welfare. 

We demand an extension of electoral reform, with a view to preventing the 
profuse expenditure of mone3 r by candidates and political committees, but. we 
resolutely oppose any effort to hamper or restrict the constitutional privileges 
of manhood suffrage. 

And we congratulate the people of the State that by the persistent efforts of a 
Democratic Governor, sustained by the Democrats in the Legislature, in defense 
of this principle, there has been at last wrested from a Republican Legislature, by 
force of public sentiment, a genuine electoral reform law, which guarantees an 
absolutely secret ballot; which prevents intimidation and corruption ; which re- 
serves for workingmen the right to have two hours on election day in which to 
vote without loss of pay for time consumed; which largely diminishes the oppor- 
tunities of candidates to expend money illegitimately; which prescribes a careful 
in of registration of electors ; which imposes heavy penalties for corrupt 
practices in elections, and which preserves inviolable to every citizen, however 
humble or unlettered be may be, the right to cast bis ballot for whomsoever he 
may choose for any office within the gift of the people. 

we favoi a revision of the tax laws, whereby personal and corporate property 
shall be made to bear its full and just burdens. 

We favor a continuance of the policy which seeks to improve the canal sys- 
i and maintain their efficiency. 

The interests of labor should he. fostered by proper and necessary legislation. 
Honest workingmen and working women should be protected from competition 
^ith convict labor, 




WILLIAM F. SHEEHAN. 



The Democratic Reference Book. y 

The Republican party, having had control of the Legislature almost contin- 
uously tor many year's, has withheld the necessary legislation required tu 
adequately accomplish such purposes ; and in this connection we denounce th'- 
failure of the Republican Senate last Winter to enact the so-called Riley bili, 
desired by the workinginen, which had passed the Democratic Assembly , 
and had for its object the further restriction of convict labor competition. 

We favor legislative provision for a proper exhibit from this State at the 
World's Columbian Exposition, to be held in Chicago in 1893, and we especially 
commend the measure to secure that object which was passed by the Democratic 
Assembly last Spring, but which a Republican Senate, with surprising reluc- 
tance, after its successful efforts to locate the Fair in Chicago, refused to enact. 

This country has always been the refuge of the oppressed from every land — 
exiles for conscience sake — and in the spirit of the founders of our Government 
we condemn the oppression and expatriation practiced by the Russian Govern - 
ment upon its Jewish citizens, and we call upon our Government, in the 
interest of justice and humanity, by all just and proper means, to use its prompt 
and best efforts to bring about a cessation of these cruel persecutions in the 
dominions of the Czar aud to insure to the oppressed equal rights. 

Fifth. Welieartily indorse the able and statesmanlike administration of Gov- 
ernor Hill during his seven years as Chief Executive of the State. He has reso- 
lutely maintained the principles of the Democratic party, and has faithfully 
contended for the interests of the people. He has ably resisted the aggressions 
of the^snecessive Republican Legislatures, whose object has been only partisan 
advantage, and he has been a firm and unrelenting foe to vicious and corrupt leg- 
islation. 

In his administration of State affairs he has received the intelligent and con- 
scientious co-operation of his Democratic associates in the State departments. 
Their joint efforts have put the State practically out of debt and left a generous 
surplus in the treasury. Efficiency and economy have marked their official 
records. 

We respectfully submit that this faithful discharge of responsibility justifies 
a continuance of the trust imposed in the Democratic party, of which they have 
been true representatives.

rat. They adhere to the principles on which the national victory was won 
in 1888 by the decisive electoral votes of this State, and they approve the legisla- 
tion of the last Congress in the embodiment of those principles. 

Second. They commend the wisdom, patriotism and purity of the administra- 
tion of President Harrison, who has brought himself near to' the hearts of the 
people by his ability and fidelity in the enforcement of the laws and the perform- 
of his duties, and also bv the admirable presentation of American principles 
which he has made in his addresses to the people. 

Third. The administration commands the confidence and respect of the 
American people bv its intelligent, efficient and sagacious conduct of the public 
business in all the departments, especially by the ability and energy displayed 
by a distinguished citizen of this State in building a navy to become adequate to 
the national defense ; by the thorough and successful management of the vast 
transactions of the Treasury under the present Secretary and his lamented pred- 
lor; and by the brilliant and conservative treatment of £our foreign relations 
by the Secretary of State which has raised the American name to the nigheet po- 
sition ever attained among the nations of the globe.

Fourth. The revemio legislation of the Fifty-first Congress, both in the Tariff 
and the Administrative act, is a just and proper application of the policy of pro- 
tection to American labor and the control of home markets for the industry of 
our own people; and the fruits of this legislation are increasing daily in the 
establishment of new factories, in steadier employment to wage-earners, in better 
prices to the farmer for the products of the soil, and in the assurance of financial 
independence for our country in the face of monetary distress throughout Europe 
and Soutn America. 

Fifth. By well-adjusted treaties of reciprocity , the Administration is opening 
the markets of the Western world to our surplus farm products and manufactures 
by admitting free of duty such articles as we do not and cannot produce in ade- 
quate quantity, and seeuring,in exchange the exemption from duty of such arti- 
cles as it is profitable for our farms and factories to export. The joint operation 
of such reciprocity and of the protective system, with the restoration of the 
American flag to the ocean carrying trade, promises to develop oar foreign com- 
merce on a healthful basis advantageous to all our industries. 

Sixth. The act of July 14, 1890, provides for the purchase of the silver prod" 
uct of American mines, and issuing of the new Treasury notes, protected by a 
reserve of 100 cents' worth of silver for every dollar issued. We commend this 
policy of maintaining gold and .silver at a parity, the Treasury notes paid for sil- 
ver to be kept at par with gold. The voice of New York is emphatic against any 
degradation of the currency, and demands with President Harrison that " every 
dollar issued by the Government, whether paper or coin, thail be as good as every 
other dollar.' ' 

Seventh. The Republican party, not forgetting the critical days when the 
needs of the Republic counted neither blood nor treasure, while mindful of the 
dictates of economy and avoiding reaction invited by excess of appropriations, 
favors the fulfillment of the pledges given to the soldiers of the Union, that the 
Nation which they saved would not fail in just treatment of surviving veterans 
and of the widows and orphans of those who saciificed their lives that the Nation 
might live. 

Eighth. That we approve the speedy construction of the Nicaragua Canal 
under American charter by American enterprise, and with American capital, as 
essential to national defense and to the interests of interstate commerce and the 
trade of the continent. 

Ninth. We recognize the dignity of labor and the necessity of proper legis- 
lation to protect its interests. We deprecate any attempt to lessen the fruits of 
toil, or to place honest workmen in competition with paupers and convicts, dom- 
estic or loreign. The rigid enforcement of the Alien Labor Contract law is 
commended. We indorse the laws enacted by the late Republican Congress to 
protect our people against the influx of the vicious pauper and criminal classes 
of foreign nations ; and we emphatically approve the rigid enforcement of these 
laws. We indorse the provisions of the act known as the Fassett law, and we 
condemn the evasion of the provisions of that act by the present State Adminis- 
tration. 

Tenth. We reassert the expressed determination of the Republican party to 
maintain the right of franchise to its fullest extent, and to give all citizens the 
amplest protection to which they are entitled under the Constitution. 

Eleventh. We favor such legislation as will prevent all illegal combinations 
and unjust exactions by aggregated capital and corporate powers. We insist 
upon tne suppression of all trusts, combines and schemes designed artificially to 
increase the price of the necessaries of life. 

Twelfth. The cruelties and persecutions practised upon the Jews in Russia 
are abhorrent to the sense of justice of this peop T e ; and the intervention of our 
Government by all proper means to secure to the oppressed of all foreign nations 
equal rights under their laws is commended. 

Thirteenth. We reaffirm the Republican party's favor to thorough genuine re- 
form in the civil service, and commend the National Administration for giving 
effect thereto under existing law. And the flagrant and persistent abuses in the 
State Civil Service by the Democratic Administration are held up to condemna- 
tion. 

Fourteenth. Appeal is taken to the people of the State to redeem its govern- 
ment from discredit brought upon it by Democratic maladministration, the 
result of a personal despotism in the Executive office, which has tolerated and 
fostered corruption and debauchery of the State departments, prostituted the 
canals, State prisons and public institutions, and all avenueb of legislation, to 
the ambition of an audacious and selfish Executive. Thanks are given faithful 
Republican legislators^ who have combated these conditions and, so far as was 
m their power, rendered them moot:- 



12 The Democratic Reference Hook. 

Fifteenth. W< Lprehensive and efficient excise legislation for giving 

local option by counties, towns and < riction by taxation in such 

localities as do not by option exclude fche liquor ti 

That there is this year no State tax for "general purposes," and 
a con- Auction of the ( he lowest rate of State tax 

in thirty-six years, is the result of wise and far-seeing Republican legislation, 
under whioh already direct taxation lias been lessoned more than $20,000,000, 
directly benefiting real estate and personal property, and at the same time estab- 
lishing the Stale and municipal credit at the highest level. This work of equal- 
ag the burden of taxation should bo continued to completion on 
the same lines. 

nth. The refusal of the Democratic Assembly to allow investigation 

of the State canals and the large expenditures annually made thereon, was c<; .- 

• n of the jobbery and dishonesty in the Democracy's perversion of the public 

properly to base partisan uses. The effort of the Republican members of the 

legislature to enforce economy on the public works, thwarted by Democratic 

opposition, is heartily commended. 

Eighteenth. The denial by a Democratic Speaker of the Legislature of the 
right of petition, in the instance of the memorial of clergymen of all denomina- 
tions and many other citizens, was a flagrant and. inexcusable violation of the 
rights of the people, and has our reprobation. 

Nineteenth. We favor the amendment of the Ballot law by the substitution 
for the unofficial "paster" ballot of the "blanket" official ballot, upon which 
the names of candidates shall be compactly grouped, rendering the voter's duty 
easy, treating candidates with equal justice, lessening opportunities for fraud, 
bribery and corruption, and largely reducing the expenses of elections. 

Twentieth. W-e approve the principle that the government of cities is pri- 
marily a matter of business administration, and the enactment of laws to secure 
for all the cities of the State genuine home rule, the enactment of a law to re- 
quire a general and uniform system of municipal accounting and the adoption 
of an amendment to the constitution requiring the passage of a general bill for 
the government of cities. 

Twenty -first The passage of the Direct Tax Refunding bill by a Republican 
Cougress and its approval by the Republican President returned to this State 
$2,213,000, which would have been distributed to the several counties as their 
iust due, but for Democratic opposition in the Legislature. 

Twenty -second. We denounce the unpatriotic effort of Governor Hill, through 
the last Democratic Assembly, to place this State in an unfriendly attitude to- 
ward the World's Columbian Exposition to be held in Chicago in 1893 ; that we 
-nize the necessity for an exhibition by the State in keeping with its com- 
mercial and industrial supremacy in the Nation; and that we favor early action 
by the next Legislature providing for a proper exhibit from this State. 

Twenty-third. It is a fundamental principle of Republican policy to reduce 
taxation and to retrench the expenditure of public money whenever it can be 
done; therefore, in the promotion of that policy the next Legislature is requested 
to adopt an amendment to Section 13, of article 6, of the "Constitution of this 
expmging therefrom the provision made for the payment of the salary of 
any judicial officer after the expiration of his term of office. 

The following resolution by Col. E. F. Shepard, of New York, was by uuani- 
vote of the Committee on Resolutions recommended and presented to the 
convention, and was carried: 

That the Republican party of the State recognize the supremacy in 
shipping and commercial d the beautiful metropolis of the Nation at 

of the Hudson, and will enooura aerican spirit that is deter- 

mined to carry that supremacy still higher, and to build American ships, 
manned by American seamen, both for carrying all American trade, and, 
, that between other countries,

The Democratic Re] 



PROCEEDINGS OF THE STATE CONVENTION. 

Tbo Democratic State Convention met attlie Casino Rink at Saratoga, on the 
15th day of September, 1891, and was composed of the following delegates, as

The convention was called to order by the Hon. Edward Murphy. Jr., Chair- 
man of the State Committee. On behalf of that committee, Mr. Murphy moved 
that the convention choose as temporary presiding officer the Hon. George 
Raines. The motion was unanimously carried and Delegates D. Cady Herriek 
and J. W. Hinckley were appointed to conduct Chairman Raines t;» the plat- 
form. On taking his seat the temporary chairman delivered the following 
address : 



18 The Democratic Reference Book. 

CHAIRMAN RAINES' ADDRESS. 

It is tie.' gjlory of our orgauization that its contentions destroy none of the 
elements rful support in the affections and convictions of its parti- 

is or convention engraves an epitaph for the van- 
quished. Won .10 of our living statesmen and scrupulous 
to preserve the . Ley have brought us by good service and wise coun- 
\\'o banish no Conkling or Miller to play the role of Old Mortality among 
• tubs of lost leaders until, . the curious antiquary writes their 
epitaphs in turn. 

reaction of party loyalty follows swiftly the shortest controversy. You 
will remember the Fall of 1S85. Some members of our party were incensed at 
bivity of lvepublican officials holding place by sufferance of a 
Democratic Federal' Administration. The Administration was faithful to the 
sentiment of the party, to the pledges of its platform, to the future hopes 
of the party, to the genius of our institution. To have paltered with greed of 
ohice and swung the ax of the headsman would have tested the faith of our 
p< qple in the arbitrament of great issues by the ballot box. ■ 

In the moment of unsteadiness in the party lines, in the hour of insensate 
clamor, at the moment the omens of insurrection and disaster were showing in 
held and town, a wiso, brave, loyal spirit, true to the fame of Democracy as 
ever was Brian, the Priest of Roderick, when he shaped the cross of fire, and, 
holding it aloft, spoke to his clansmen, rose by the slow-moving waters of the 
Hudson, in the capital of the Empire State of Democracy. From the storehouse 
of Democratic faith he drew a screed of inspiration, and spoke it to the quaking- 
hearts of the true and the mad passion of the mutinous alike. 

"1 am a Democrat" summoned the life-blood to its courses of loyalty and 
pride from the clogged centres of dismay. 

UPON STATE LINES. 

The campaign which draws upon us is to be fought upon the records of par- 
ties in State administration. We are no longer left to conjecture as to Repub- 
lican leadership. Plattism stalks in midday for popular view and judgment. 
Exile Miller is silent. Belden indifferent. Wads worth is sullen. Becker has a 
genuine German bit of indignation. The cultured White, who gathered to his 
candidacy the moral force and pure convictions of his party, expressed his 
thanks for "the honor even of a serious mention," and withdrew by a letter 
written the day previous to the convention. He had been the candidate of Mr. 
Piatt for several months, if we may rely upon the press of New York. In fact, 
Mr. Piatt was for his nomination upon the same authority when on the day be- 
fore the convention General Spontaneity uprose in his majesty and ordered 
I s in favor of a young gentleman whose name had been mentioned in no 
caucus oi convention of the party, and whose co-delegates from Chemung first 
heard of his candidacy, his brilliant prospects and of the gallant conduct of 
;il Spontaneity on their arrival in Kochester to attend the convention. 
The wooden horse that moved to the taking of Troy was no more unconscious 
of the Grecian spontaneity embellied in his ample outline than was'the late 
Minister to Berlin of the amount of Piatt spontaneity his own fine ulster was 
concealing from view until, in his own phrase, "advices now reaching me " (at 
Syracuse) led him to the act of resignation, The dens ex machina "winked the 
other eye," and instantly all the subways of Plattism poured forth blue flame, 
and in the great light the name of i'assebt "led all the rest." 

It is along the linen of State affairs that this contest must be waged most 
keenly. The declaration that the Kepublican party never betrayed the financial 
honor of our State is sadly untrue. 'The thought traverses years to the critical 
period of L864, when the question came before the Legislature whether the in- 
; on the bonded debt created before the war should continue to be paid in 
gold or be paid in thrice-debased currency. In that hour, May, 1804, a Demo- 
nptroller, Lucius Robinson, made his most masterly plea for the 
credit and honor of our State. The Democratic Executive, Horatio Seymour, 
with 8 prayed that the hand of the destroyer of our credit be

reapportionment demanded. 

The gravest offense of Plattism has been committed against the free and 
equal suffrage of our citizens. Why a member of Assembly in St. Lawrence 
County shouid be selected by 28,000 people, in Washington County by 22.000 
people, while in Erie, Monroe. Kings and New York, over one-third of the State 
in population, more than 63,<»00 people aie necessary to select one member of 
Assembly cannot be explained. 

It is an honorable kind of thievery. The Constitution enjoins a numera- 
tion of inhabitants and a division of districts as nearly as may be according 
to the number of their respective inhabitants. The duty has been evaded for 
live years. 

MR. FASSETT AS A POLITICIAN. 

TTe do not say that Mr. Fassett is not a genial and able mm, generous and 
pure in all private relations, of creditable religious associations, and sur- 
rounded by home influences of such refinement that the public tribute to them 
at Rochester wins from us only sincere congratulations; but in the larger field 
of political warfare he has too long[been privy to the incantations of the sorcerer 
and breathed too deeply of the steaming corruptions of the caldron of Plattism. 
He has learned to grasp and retain power in derogation of the equal rights of 
all the people by abhorrent methods. 

The people declared in 1886 for the constitutional convention, and the duty 
abides unperformed to enact a suitable law to carry that will into effect. As if 
to make it feasible to perform the duty, the Federal census of 1890 fixed a basis 
of population so that it only remained to divide representation in that conven- 
tion upon tue basis of that census. The Democratic Assembly of 1890 passed a 
bill accordingly, but the Fassett Gentile saw that it * adoption would pillory the 
fraud maintained in the apportionment of the Legislature. The bill never ap- 
peared from the committee nor was any substitute sent to the Assembly. 
Fraudulent purpose in political control of the legislation has reached a culmina- 
tion where it stops the ballot-box b\ law. A monopoly of suffrage is intolerable, 
and no relief from it is possible until we have a Legislature free from Piatt con- 
trol, a Governor of kindred sense of justice and an equal ballot in every free- 
man's hand. JSTo issue is ma e with us upon our economies in State administra- 
tion. After nine years of service of a Democratic Executive and one year of con- 
trol of tae Assembly, the lowest tax rate of thirty-five years has been accom- 
plished. TYise methods of taxation tc still farther reduce the tax rate have 
been held back by the corporate influences which have been powerful in the 
bodies controlled by the Republican cabal of leaders. 

THE COMMITTEES. 

After a short session the Convention adjourned until the 16th inst., at ten 
o'clock, A. M. In order to give time for the appropriate action, examining com- 
mittees of the assemblage were named by the temporary chairman as fol- 
lows ;

THE NOMINATIONS. 

The Convention reassembled on the 16th inst. pursuaut to adjournment. 
"When the order of names was reached iu due course of business, the name of 
RoswellP. Flower was placed in nomination before the convention as a candi- 
date for Governor by Mayor Porter, of Watsrtown. Alfred C. Chapin, of 
Brooklyn, was placed in nomination by William C. De Witt, of Brooklyn. 
Each nomination was seconded, and an animated discussion ensued, after 
which the choice of the Democracy of New York for Governor of the State was 
made by the following vote: Flower, 334; Chapin, 43. For Lieutenant- 
Governor, the Hon. William F. Sheehan, Speaker of the Assembly, was nomi- 
nated by the unanimous vote of the convention. The names of Frank Rice, for 
Secretary of State ; Frank Carapbeil, for Comptroller ; of Simon W. Rosendale, 
for Attorney-General ; of Elliott C. Danforth, for State Treasurer, and of 
Martin Sehenck. for State Engineer and Surveyor, were all made unanimously 
and by acclamation. The chairman of the Committee on Resolutions reported 
the following platform, which was approved by the Convention by unanimous 
vote. Before the adjournment the Convention voted its thanks to its officers, 
who, in accordance with the recommendation of the Appropriate Committee, 
served both during the temporary and during the permanent organization of 
the body. 

The entire proceedings, with the exception of t lie spirited advocacy of the 
nomination of Mayor Chapin by the Kings County delegates, were unanimous 
in their haimony, and it is to be noted that the nomination of Mr. Flower was 
made unanimous on motion of the Kings County delegates, so that the ticket, 
as presented to the voters of New York, goes to the State without the record of 
a single dissenting voice among the party's delegates. 



ROSWELL P. FLOWER. 

Roswell Pettibone Flower is in the prime of life; experienced, vigorous, 
hopeful, and always adding to an ample store of public knowledge. Of Con- 
necticut ancestry, with an infusion of Scotch-Irish blood on the maternal side, 
be comes naturally by those qualities which have made him successful in busi- 
through determined conflict with u Acuities that would have brought fail- 
» a weaker man. As a business man, he is one of the most noted in the 





Ct^^t-^xf

United States, not only for the extent of his transactions, but for the liberality 
with which they have been conducted, and which ha3 made for him hosts of fast 
friends. Loyal to public and personal obligations, untiring in the pursuit of 
worthy ends, charitable in an exceeding degree, while shunning ostentation, he 
is in many ways helped by those whom he has aided, although no one could 
ever say of him that his benefactions were tainted with selfishness. Politically 
a pupil of Tilden, who was the first of the great party leaders to perceive his 
extraordinary ability as an organizer, he has stood by the Democratic party and 
its candidates through thick and thin, in triumph and m defeat, during the past 
fcer of a century. The Democracy of New York have made in him a fitting 
choice for a campaign of harmony against the Republican party, for there is no 
Democratic element or leader unfriendly to him. 

Mr. Flower was bora at Theresa, Jefferson County, New York, August 7, 
1835. His father died when Koswell was eight years old, leaving a large family. 
The boy was set to work picking wool to. help to support the household, and 
after a while he went to work with his brother-in-law, Silas L. George, for $5 a 
week and board. During the winter he attended the Theresa School, until he 
was sixteen years of age. Then he commenced teaching school as an assistant, 
losing a situation which he accepted in Philadelphia, through the failure of his 
employer, he returned to Jefferson County, and worked as a farm hand until 
1833, when he became a clerk in the hardware store of Howell, Cooper & Co., at 
Watertown, and afterwards deputy postmaster . In 185G Mr. Flower married, 
and was preparing to practice law when the death of his brother-in-law, Henry 
Keep, devolved upon him the responsibility of executor of a large estate. The 
duties of that trust brought him to Xew York, while he retained his home at 
TTatertown. For several years his services to the Democratic party, although 
valuable, were not stamped by conspicuous political position, but in 1877 he was 
chosen Chairman of the Democratic State Executive Committee, and conducted 
the vigorous campaign of that year under circumstances of much difficulty. In 
1881 occurred the famous contest in the Eleventh Congressional District, in 
which William Maclay Astor had the Republican nomination. The vacancy was 
created by the appointment of Oliver P. Morton to be Minister to France, and 
x-\e election of a Republican successor was taken for granted, since the district, 
as then constituted, was Republican by 4.000, the majority Mr. Morton received. 
But a wonderful canvass reversed all this, and Mr. Flower was elected by 3,100 
majority, a change of over 7,000 votes to the Democracy. 

In the Forty-seventh Congress the Representative from the Eleventh New 
York was a member of the Committee on Banking and Currency, and made many 
notable speeches, which, however, left their mark in politics as well as in the 
Federal statutes. In 1882 Mr. Flower received 123 votes at th6 Syracuse Con- 
vention in the competition with General Slocum and Grover Cleveland for the 
nomination for Governor. Mr. Cleveland won the Governorship and the Presi- 
dency, and his administration had no more consistent supporter than Mr. 
Flower. 

When the public agitation resulted in the passage of a law to compel the 
burying of the electric wires in the streets of New York, Mr. Flower was ap. 
pointed head of the Subway Commission, organized that Board, and finally 
retired in favor of his business associate, Mr. Daniel L. Gibbens. His subse- 
quent career as a citizen and Congressman is fresh in the minds of all. By 
universal consent of his colleagues, he was placed at the head of the Democratic 
movement for the passage of a law to secure the "World's Fair for New York 
In no part of his career were his qualities as a patriot, a politician, and a man- 
ager of great undertakings more signally displayed. But the Republican i 



22 The Democratic Reference Book. 

bad determined that the great Democratic city of New York should not receive 
the advantages that might accrue to it and to its political views by the holding 
of the World's Fair in a presidential year, and hy decree of the Republican 
party— National, State and local-— the Fail was sent to Chicago by a shameful 
vote, in which on the test question scarcely a corporal's guard of Republicans 
from the Northeast stood by the great Northwestern metropolis. Upon his 
nomination for Governor, Mr. Flower instantly resigned his seat in Congress, 
and lie now confidently, because deservedly, awaits the recognition of his fellow- 
citizens on election day. 

The workmen of New York will lead in enthusiastic support of the farmer's 
boy who worked his way up. 

WILLIAM F. SHEEHAN. 

Seven years in succession a Member of Assembly, and yet only thirty-one 
years old ! Need more be said of his popularity, ability and political sagacity 
than this, unless it be to add that, with a single exception, William F. Sheehan 
is the youngest of the seventy-one Speakers of the Assembly ot the State of New 
York. Of his seven years of legislative service, five were passed as leader of a 
Democratic minority on the floor. No legislative chief ever held more firmly to- 
gether the members of his own party or succeeded more frequently in obtaining 
auxiliary support from dissentients within the other party. The minority led 
by Sheehan was often in fact the majority, and it is to his parliamentary address* 
and great ability in convincing and conciliating that the State owes many of the 
most salutary laws of this decade. Mr. Sheehan, a native of Buifaio, was edu- 
cated at St. Joseph's College in that city. He studied law in the office of Attor- 
ney-General Charles F. Tabor ; in 1882 was admitted to the Bar and to member- 
ship in the firm of which Mr. Tabor was the head. At each successive contest 
Mr. Sheehan has been elected by increasing majorities. A determined and frank 
fighter, he has overcome opposition within his own party, and the magnificent 
reception given to him at Buffalo on his return home after his nomination by 
the Saratoga Convention testified how great is his popularity among his neigh- 
bors, Republican as well as Democratic. When notified of his nomination by the 
Saratoga Convention, Speaker Sheehan was escorted to the platform and made 
the following happy acknowledgment of the honor conferred upon him : 

41 Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention : I would indeed be 
ungrateful if I were not touched by your more than generous actior, I have not 
come here for the purpose of making an address. I have come simply to say that 
I am here in answer to the summons of an unanimous request upon the part of 
the representatives of the Democratic party of this State that I shall be its can- 
date for the office of Lieutenant-Governor. 

" There have been times in my seven years of legislative life when I was ca- 
pable of giving utterance to my thoughts. You will pardon me if I say that 
language to-day cannot express them I cannot accurately express to you my 
gratification a1 the splendid indorsement which not only :ny record but the rec- 
ord of the Democratic members of the Legislature in the last Democratic Assem- 
bly has met ;it your hands. Language utterly fails me. Both physically and at 
nt mentally I am incapable, I frankly' confess, of fittingly' returning my 
thanks. You have- commanded that I shall accept a post of honor. In the spirit 
in which it was ottered I accept it." 

FRANK RICE. 

Secretary of G k Bice, the favorite son of Ontario, was born in 

a, in thai county, on January 15, 1815. A farmer's son, he worked on the

ALFRED C. CHAPIN. 



lM The Democratic Reference Book, 

ELLIOTT DANFORTH. 

Stai ' Elliott Dan forth has a right to expect re-election for the same 

reason as Secretary of State Frank Rice. He has been eminently successful in 
the administration of his important trust. Mr. Danforth was born in 1850, and 
dmitted to the Bar in 1871. His home is in Bainbridge, Now York, where 
he Is a director of the First National Bank. Ho is a prominent member of the 
Masonic fraternity and of other fraternal organizations, and his local popularity 
has been demonstrated by repeated favors of his fellow-townsmen. In 1880 he 
was the youngest delegate from the State to the National Convention which 
nominated Hancock ; was in that year made the candidate of his party for 
ess, in the Chenango, Delaware and Otsego District, but declined the 
nomination. In 1884 he was the delegate to the National Convention which 
nominated Cleveland, and he was also prominent among New Yorkers at St, 
Louis in the Convention of 1888. 

MARTIN SCHENCK. 

Martin Schenck, now of Rensselaer County, was boru at Palatine Bridge, 
Montgomery County, in 1848, received his degree as civil engineer from Union 
College at Schenectady, and commenced life as a railroad builder in Colorado and 
other Western States. Since 1883 he has been professionally engaged on the 
work of the improvement of the upper Hudson, of which he became chief en- 
gineer in 1887. Mr. Schenck's reputation has been made in the profession which 
it will be his duty to pursue as Siate Engineer and Surveyor. In addition to 
the public works above referred to, he has had sole charge of the construction 
of new work on the Erie and Champlain Canals.

SCHEDULES. 



THE NEW ELECTION DISTRICTS. 

A revision of election districts in New York City has come to be of annual 
occurrence. Prior to the year 1888 the law provided that where for two years 
consecutively the total registration in any of the existing election districts of 
New York exceeded four hundred, the Police Commissioners were empowered to 
divide each district in two. This provision well served the convenience of 
the voters and it left the other districts intact as before. The new ballot law 
substituted for this an entirely new plan whereby the chief of the Bureau of 
Elections was compelled last year to make a complete revision of the city and. 
irrespective of geographical claim, to so divide the districts, that each would 
have a total vote of 300 as near as that vote could be computed in advance. One 
result of this change is that not over ten men in the city can tell the number of 
the election district in which they reside at present. 

Another result was that instead of each election district including a square 
block or several square blocks, diagonal lines were run, separating the districts 
in such fashion that a resident of a house might have to vote at one polling 
place and the resident of the house next door at another polling place, perhaps 
some distance away. This fully complied with the law, but it imposed serious 
annoyance upon many electors, as residents of a sparsely populated part of town 
were compelled to travel longer distances than before to vote. Where the vote 
in a closely compacted district was more than 300 last year the duty of the Elec- 
tion Bureau required the chopping off of a sufficient number of houses to bring 
the district within the limits, at the same time adding the residents of the 
houses so chopped off to another district. 

The last legislature in a progressive spirit raised the number of voters nec- 
essary for an election district to 400. The Board of Police later brought down 
the number to 340. On that basis the city has been reapportioned. This causes 
no end of annoyance to voters who have this year again not only the boundaries 
but also the number of their election districts changed. This causes also 
changes in polling places and registration places as well. Where the population 
is scattered, the districts have been enlarged to get to the 340 limit. Incident- 
ally the number of polling places iu the lower part of the city had to be cut 
down. Last year under the new law the number of districts in the First was cu 



80 Thk Democratic Reference Book. 

down to 24. This year there is a further out of 5, leaving only 19 polling places 
in this district, covering over 500 acr 

The revision of the .districts last year under the law cost the people of this 
city $38, 000. The bill for this year's supplementary revision is not yet in. 

OUTSIDE OF NEW YOllK CITY. 

In othor parts of the State the law forces redisricting also. In one way 
there is an advantage, in the reduction of the number of inspectors and ballot 
clerks required, thus decreasing the expenses of election. In towns the officers 
charged with the apportionment of election districts are the supervisors, the 
assessors and the town olerk. In cities the division is usually made by the com- 
mon council, except New York and Brooklyn, where their present election laws 
govern. In Xew York and Brooklyn inspectors of election must be in office and 
qualified before Tuesday, October 6; all other cities before Saturday, October 3 ; 
all other localities before Saturday, October 17. Polling places must be selected 
on the first Monday in September.

The Democratic Reference Book. 101 



INACCURATE ELECTION REPORTS. 

Impatient partisans frequently comment with greater or less severity upon 
the inability of the newspapers to furnish accurate and full election returns 
from all parts of the State upon the morning after election. Faulty estimates 
and scant returns from the hack districts upon the night of election day are the 
rule and not the exception. The errors come from the fact that it is a common 
thing for an enthusiastic chairman of a partisan county committee to telegraph 
his own estimates instead of the actual returns. This leads to endless confusion 
and makes it ofteQ impossible to gather exact returns from the different counties 
from which to estimate the majorities of the different candidates from the 
whole State. 

Returns come in slowly from counties like Schenectady and those in the 
northern and southern tiers. In districts where morning papers are published, 
returns come in promptly. But, in places where no morning papers are pub- 
lished, estimates tick profusely over the wires. 

Schenectady County is one of the most compact counties in the State, from 
the fact that the city of that name composes about three-fourths of the popula- 
1 tion of the county. There is no morning paper published in the place, and 
there seems to be no organized effort to collect full returns that can be used on 
election night. In fact, it is not at all uncommon for several days to elapse 
before every district is reported. The papers are satisfied to wait for its returns. 
Under proper arrangements Schenectady ought to be one of the first counties, 
outside of the large cities, to make a return of its Tote. 

St. Lawrence and the other counties of the northern tier, embracing the 
Adirondack region, are inaccessible by reason of the distances from telegraph 
and telephone offices. It is a difficult locality to collect returns in. "When 
the normal vote of this region is disturbed through the nomination of a caudi 
date from that part of the State, the conditions make it almost impossible 
to make an estimate of any majority in those counties upon the night of 
election. 

This is a characteristic, but not in so great a degree, of the counties of the 
southern tier, and also of the counties of Greene and Ulster. 

Following the lines of the Erie and New York Central systems, in both 
sections, returns are, on account of extraordinary telegraph facilities, easily 
collected. The counties included thus are the first ones to report on election 
night. This section includes the Democratic counties, almost without excep- 
tion, in the State, above the Harlem river. For that reason an apparent 
Democratic majority always decreases, and an apparent Republican majority 
always increases. This fact any one interested can easily verify by taking 
any of the great New York dailies on the morning after election, and noting 
the difference between the Democratic or Republican majorities and that of 
the official count.

ANALYZING THE VOTE IN FORMER YEARS. 

To the citizen who delights in watching the ebb and flow of Democracy and 
Republicanism in the two practically great political divisions of the State, these 
tables will prove an interesting study 

While the Southern division is almost absolutely Democratic, the Northern 
division is nearly its equal in its sturdy Republicanism. 

The Republican tide, that has its source in St, Lawrence county, sweeps down 
through the State with an irresistible force, overwhelming the few scattering 
Democratic counties in its way until it reaches the Harlem river. Here it is 
met by a terrific flood of Democratic votes from the county of New York, supple- 
mented by the votes of the counties of Richmond, Kings and Queens. This 
counterflood has been of such strength at times that it has driven back the 
Northern vote for Governor since 1879, but the Northern vote has swept away 
the Southern tide in every Presidential election since 1860, with the exceptions 
of 1876 and 1884. The two streams of votes have been at times so nearly equal 
in volume that it has taken the official count to decide the result. 
***** 

It has been the custom for a good many years to divide the State for election 
purposes into two divisions. The North division being all that portion of the 
State north and west of the Harlem river and contains 55 counties. The South- 
ern portion is that part of the State below the Harlem river, and contains 5 
counties. In the election for Governor in 1888 a glance at the table will show 
that while Hill carried all the counties in the Southern division with the excep- 
tion of Suffolk, he was able to wrest fro in Miller only 9 counties out of 55 in the 
Northern division. 

The tables are so arranged that the majorities of the different candidates may 
be seen at a glance. 

N. B. — The expression "Above or below the Harlem river" is used be- 
cause itj has been so universally adopted. It really means all that portion 
north and west of New York county for the North division., and including New 
York county all that portion south and east of New York county for the South- 
ern part. The 24th Assembly District, that is now part of New York county, 
was annexed a few years ago and was until that time a part of the town of East- 
chester, of the county of Westchester, and lies above the Harlem river. 
***** 

The tables have been carefully prepared and the figures taken from official 
records. The State has been divided into two divisions, above and below the 
Harlem, for the convenience of the reader. The Democratic counties above and 
below the Harlem have been grouped together and the majorities given by coun- 
ties, with their totals, at the bottom. The Republican counties have been bandied 
in the same way. The total vote of each candidate is given and the majorities 
of the candidates by counties when subtracted from each other equals in every 
instance, even to a single unit, the difference of the gross vote of the candidates. 

J. V. Bebry. 



CALCULATION OF THE TOTAL VOTE THAT WILL 
BE CAST FOR GOVERNOR IN 1891, BASED ON THE 
ELECTORAL VOTE CAST IN 1884, AND THE VOTE 
FOR GOVERNOR IN 1385. 

The vote for Governor in 1879 and the Electoral vote of 1880 is not taken 
as a comparison, although they were elections exactly similar to the ones to be 
held in 1891 and 1892. The vote .for Governo: immediately preceding that for 
President, for the reason that the election for Governor was not normal, and 
the triangular fight between Kelly and Robinson, who divided the Democratic 
vote, and Cornell, who had the united Republican support, made the election 



The Democratic Reference Book. 115 

of Cornell a foregone conclusion. Consequently general apathy reigned and a 
light vote was polled. Many Democrats stayed away from the polls because 
they believed that their candidate could not be elected, and many Republi 
cans neglected to vote because they believed their vote would not be needed 
to elect Cornell. 

The operation of the same causes caused a light vote to be polled for 
Governor in 1882. Although Cleveland that year received the unprecedented 
majority of 192,000, he yet only received a normal Democratic vote through- 
out the State. 

Electoral vote in 1888 1,322.748 

1884 1,171,383 

Increase in vote thrown 151,365 

This was a gain in four years of 12.92 per cent. 

On this basis, if 12.92 per cent, be taken of the vote 
thrown in 1888, it would give an increase between 
1888 and 1892 of 170,399 

Divide 170,399^2 (by 2), it would give 85,199 

Add to this the vote cast in 1888 1,322,748 

And we will have the. probable vote 1,407,947 

• 
that would have been cast for the electoral ticket, if the election for President 
had taken place in 1890 instead of 1888. 

If that supposition be true, and a long experience in election work 
has convinced the writer that the ratio of increase between normal elections 
that take place in the State of New York, or, in fact, in any State in the 
United States, may safely be taken as a basis upon which to estimate the in- 
crease of votes that may be held under the same conditions in any future 
elections. 

The same system can be taken in estimating the decrease or falling off 
in a vote. 

The election for President is considered the most important, and electors 
show that they so consider it by coming out in larger numbers than at any 
other election, and the vote thrown for the electoral ticket is Urgely in ex- 
cess of that cast at any other time. For an example, if the vote cast for 
Secretary ot State in 1887 be compared with the vote for President the following 
year, it will show that there was a difference of 277,373. Take also the 
vote in 1889, one year after the presidential election, the vote for Secretary 
of State failed to reach that thrown for the electoral ticket iu £1888 by 
304,014. 

The election for Governor is the next in importance to that of the Pres- 
ident, and the vote cast is generally midway between that cast for Secretary 
of State and the one cast for President : 

Electoral vote cast 1884 1,171,383 

Governor " " 1885 1,026,239 

Decrease in vote cast 145,144 

A falling off of 12.288 per cent. 

On the basis that the election for President had been held in 
1890, and the vote thrown amounted to 1,407,947 

And the vote for this year, 1891. for Governor fell off 12.288 per 
cent, or as much as it did in 1885 from the election of 1884, 
the result would be as follows : 12.288 per cent, of 1,407,947 

Gives as a decrease between the tw r o votes 173,008 

Subtract decrease, and we have 1,234.939 

The probable total vote that will be cast for Governor in 1891.

NOTES. 



SOME ERRORS IN ELECTION TABLES. 



A study of the figures published in the * ; Red Book " or Legislative Annual 
reveals the fact that errors exist in the electoral tables of the book for 18S5. The 
vote of Otsego County was given as 8,307 for Cleveland. Ifc should have been 
7 307. Other errors in the tables showed an apparent difference of over 1,200 from 
t be printed totals. The true figures were only ascertained by a search of the files 
in the office of the Secretary of State. The reports of the Secretary of State 
showed the errors to have been made in the printer's office. So far as known the 
errors have never previously been pointed out. 

In the Red Book for 1889, the electoral vote for Cleveland was given as 162,732. 
The City Record of New York city give3 the official figures for Ottendorfer, the 
leading Cleveland elector, as 162,626, or 109 less than state 1 in the Red Book. 

Upon the Harrison vote the difference between the official canvass published in 
the City Record and the Red Book is much larger. The Red Book credits Harrison 
with 106.922, while the City Record gives William H. Seward, who neaded the 
Harrison ticket, 105,452, or 1,470 less than given in the Red Book. The vote of the 
several electors for each did not vary much, in no case over five ballots. 



THE STORMY PETREL. 



AS MONTGOMERY GOES SO GOES THE STATE. 

Much interest attaches to the vote of Montgomery County. It is regarded as a 
Stormy Petrel amon<r politicians, as indicative of the result in the whole State 
from its narrow margin. As Montgomery goes so goes the State, they say. For 
years back the successful ticket in that county for President has been the win- 
ning ticket in the State It is as much of a sign as the famous saying, " As New 
York goes so goes the Union," except that in the latter case there have been 
exceptions. In the gubernatorial elections since 1879 there has been but one ex- 
ception, that of 1888, Hill, the winning gubernatorial candidate, losing the county 
by a narrow majority. 



The basis of comparison on the gubernatorial vote and that of Lieutenant- 
Governor in the campaign this year must necessarily be the elections of 1885. In 
the election of 1888 National issues entered the canvass to a large degree through 
the Presidential vote. This makes it useless as a basis for comparison. In 1885 
and in 1879, the canvass was made upon purely State issues, and the same con- 
ditions exist this year. The vote or the State canvass in 1882 is not used for the 
reason that the abnormal conditions which existed in that year's canvass make 
the results useless as a basis of comparison, Cleveland's plurality being 192,000 in 
round numbers. 



The basis of comparison on the vote of Secretary of State this year must be 
that of the election of 1885, the last year that a full State ticket was in the field. 
The elections of 1887 and 1889^ cannot be used, as the conditions of the canvass as 
affected by the gubernatorial vote are not the same. For the same reason the 
basis of comparison on the other subordinate positions on the State ticket must 
be compared with the election of 1885. 



Careless writers for the press, aided by stump speakers of the same charac- 
ter, have caused a gross error to become fixed in the public mind in regard to 
Kings County having defeated Cleveland in 1888. 

The official returns show the following : 

Cleveland's majority in 1884, in Kings 15,729 

" " 1888, *' 12,455 

Difference between the two majorities - 3,274 

Harrison's majority in 1888, 14,374. 



202 The Democratic Reference Book. 

If Kings County had returned the same majority in 1888 as she did in 1884, 
Harrison would have still had 14,374—3,274. or 11,100 m the State. A study of 
thin hook will show the sections of the State which elected Harrison. 



The average annual rates in the gain of voters in this State on Secretary of 
State, when that office has headed the State ticket, is 27,998. The increase in 
the nun her of voters in the State on Secretary of State, between 1887 and 1889, 
was 59,592. This gives an annual increase in the number of voters in the State 
2a. 790 in off years. 



The increase in the number of voters between 1884 and 1888 was 152,579, 
according to the electoral votes of those years. This shows the average annual 
increase of the voters in the State as 38,145. 



The Board of State canvassers is composed of the following State officers: 
Secretary of State, Comptroller, Treasurer, Attorney-General and State 
Engineer and Surveyor. 



The Constitution of this State, being modeled after the Constitution of the 
United States, provides that the Speaker of Assembly shall be a member of the 
House. The Lieutenant-Governor occupies the same official position in the 
State Senate that the Vice-President of the United States does in the United 
States Senate, and in like manner has no vote except in case of a tie. Neither 
can he debate upon any question pending. 



The Constitution of the State of New York is mandatory that midway 
between decades an enumeration of inhabitants shall be taken for the purpose 
of apportioning the Senate and Assembly districts in the ratio of the population 
of each county to the whole State. Provided, however, that each county, 
except Hamilton, which is annexed to Fulton, shall have at least one Assembly 
district. 

Before the recent change in the system of voting in this State, several 
ballot boxes were used to deposit ballots in. The new laws were adopted in 
1890 and amended in 1891. The plan of a single ballot is exactly similar to 
the one which has been in use for more than thirty-five years in town meetings 
throughout the State, and therefore ought not to be confusing. 



While the representation in Congress is changed every decade in New 
York State, the number of members in the Legislature is mandatory— 128 
assemblymen and 32 senators. 



In consequence of the canvass on behalf of John Kelly, for Governor, in 

1879, Democrats had no hope of carrying the State. Their Vote should have 

amounted to 840,000. Only 816,000 votes were polled. The same thing occurred 

32. Through the lethargy of the " stay-at-homes," a light Republican 

was polled. Though Cleveland received an immense plurality, only the 

laocratic vote was polled. 



udential election of 1884 was followed by the gubernatorial election 
I he conditions in 1891 and 1892 are similar, except that the elections 
ed in order. The presidential vote in 1884 was 1,166,175, the guber- 
natorial rote of 1885, 1,026,329, showing a falling off of 139,846, or a ratio of 8.34. 
The vote of 1879 cannot he used to compute a ratio, as there was not an average 
ist in that year. 

In all political calculations, the ratio increases in the same measure as the 
vote. The annual increase in the vote keeps pace with the increase in popula- 
tion. Theae facts are frequently neglected in this kind of work. 



The Democratic Reference Book. 203 

The last Attorney-General chosen from the county of New York was 
Francis C. Barlow, who was elected to that position by the Republicans in 1871. 



From 1850 to 1876 Xew York State supplied the nation with no President or 
Vice-President. Since 1876 either the President or the Vice-President has 
always been a Xew Yorker. 



Xew Yo:k State has had four Minister* to England ; five to France; three to 
Germany, and two, before that, to Prussia ; three to Austria; three to Spain ; 
three to Russia; one to Italy; three to Holland; two to China and two to Turkey. 



Alonzo B. Cornell was the last Republican Governor elected in this State; 
hence the e ection table of 1879 is inserted before that of 1*82. In the election 
of 1879 the Prohibition vote cast was 20,286; scattering. 6,839. The combined 
Democratic votes for Robinson and Kelly wer • 453.356, showing an actual Dem- 
ocratic plurality in that year of 34,75J.' The Republican candidate, Cornell, 
was elected by a plurality of 42,777 over Robinson, the candidate receiving the 
next highest vote. 



Five of the Congressional Districts in the Stat.' are composed of counties 
identical in territory with Senatorial Districts of the same number or otherwise. 
For this reason they are sometimes confused and transposed. Votes given for 
Congressmen are often credited to State Senators, and rice versa. 

Thus the Eighteenth Senate District, which includes the counties of Saratoga, 
Schenectady, Montgomery, Fulton and Hamilton, is the Twentieth Congres- 
sional District. 

The Fifteeuth Senate District (counties of Putnam. Duchess and Columbia) 
is the Twentieth Congressional District. 

The Sixteenth Senate District (Rensselaer and Washington) is the Eighteenth 
Congressional District. 

The Seventeenth Senate District (Albany) is the Xineteenth Congressional 
District. 

The Twenty-fifth Senate District (Onondaga and Cortlandt) is also the 
Twenty-fifth Congressional District. 



The last year that the Democrats had a majority in both branches of the 
Legislature was in 1883. In that year the Tammany members would not go into 
the regular Democratic caucus, but voted with the Republicans. 



In 1889 the total vote in the whole State for Secretary of State was 1.018.753. 
In the previous year (ld88> the total vote was 1,320,109. a falling off of 301,356. 
This was notwithstanding the fact that the annual average ratio of increase in 
the number of voters in the State as compared with former years was 38,145. 



The following indicates the names and terms of the Governors of Xew York 
from 1776 to the present time : George Clinton, 1777-95 ; John Jay, 1795-1801 ; 
George Clinton. 1801-4 ; Morgan Lewis, 1804-7 : Daniel D. Tompkins, 1807-17 ; 
De Witt Clinton, 1817-23 : Joseph C. Yates, 1823-5 ; De Witt Clinton, 1825-29 ; 
Martin Van Buren. 1829 31; Enos T. Thropp, 1831-3: William L. Marey! 
1833 39 : William H. Seward, 1839-43 ; William C. Bouck, 1843-5 ; Silas

Grover Cleveland, 1884-5 ; David B. Hill. 1885-92. 



Seven State Senators are to be elected from the City of Xew York this year. 
State Senators are elected in what are usually known as municipal off years. 
The Senators elected this year wiiibecalled upon to take part iu the election of a 
United States Senator in 1893. and also to vote upon the question of reapportion 
nient. Xew York City's representation in the upper branch of the last Legisla- 
ture was composed of six Democrats and one Republican. In 1881 and in 1885 
the delegation was solidly Democratic. In 1883, 18o7 and 1889 a Republican 
Senator was secured in Xew York City.

GOVERNORS. 

George Clinton ran for Governor of New York live times, and was elected 
every time. 

Daniel D. Tompkins was elected Governor four times in succession, the term 
then being three years, and finally he resigned to become Vice-President. He 
was in office ten years. 

J V Witt Clinton was twice elected Governor. A term intervened at which 
he was not a candidate, and he then ran again and was elected for two terms in 
succession. 

William L. Marcy was elected Governor in 1832, defeating Francis Granger. 
At the close of his term he was re-elected, defeating William fl. Seward, and at 
the close of his second term he was elected Governor for a third term by a 
majority larger than ou either previous occasion. 

Horatio Seymour was nominated for Governor in 1850, but was defeated ; he 
ran in 1852 and was elected; he was a candidate in 1854 and was defeated; he 
ran for the fourth time in 1862 and was elected ; he was nominated for the fifth 
time in 1864 and was defeated, and was nominated for the sixth time in 1876, but 
declined. 

John T. Hoffman was three times one candidate of the Democratic party for 
Governor— in 1866, 1868, and 1870. In 1868 and 1870 he was elected, his majority 
being three times ; as large when he ran for the third time as when he ran for the 
second. 

William H. Seward was three times a candidate for Governor; John A. Dix 
three times; Edwin D. Morgan three times; and each of them served two terms 
in the office. 

David B. Hill served out the unexpired term of Grover Cleveland and was 
twice afterwards chosen to fill the office. 



THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE. 

In the Fifty-second Congress elected in the fall ofl890, thereare 87 Republicans 
and 235 members to be classed as Democrats and Alliance men. The Fifty-second 
Congress will meet in December of this year. The term of office will last until 
midnight, March 3, 1894. Thirteen months will have elapsed since the election 
last fall. The term practically opened March 4th last, and from that date sala- 
ries were paid. The framer of the law is unknown. It was enacted before rail- 
roads were open. In those days members of Congress were obliged to travel to 
Washington by stagecoach or on horseback. The journey took many weeks, 
and in some cases months. At the present time, with the aid of railroads the 
journey from the most distant part of the Union, except Alaska, does not take 
over two weeks. 

The Fifty-third Congress to be elected in 1893 will not meet until December. 
1894, bat the electoral college from the different states for the presidential elec- 
tion of 1892 will be based upon the representatives apportioned among the differ- 
ent States for that Congress. The term of that Congress thus commences simul- 
taneously in 1893 with that of the President elected inl892. The Representatives, 
however, will not take their seats until December, 1893, unless called in special 

session. 

It is a common error that the electoral college of 1892 will be based upon the 
representation in the Fifty-second Congress. The electoral college elected next 
year w ill be based upon the representation in the Congress to be chosen in 1892, 
which will not take seats until December, 1893, following the inauguration of the 
next President. The error mentioned is one that noone should fall into, for the 
ii that Congressmen are always chosen for the full term, either with the 
presidential electors or midway in the presidential term. The basis upon which 
the electoral college is chosen' is tin; Congress elected with the President sub- 
sequent to the time the census and apportionment are made. If by any chance 
Congress should not reapportion its members among the States in time to meetthe 
election coming with the President, the change iu the electoral representation 
would be deferred until the election of Congress is made upon the previous 
apportionment, and therefore would be based upon the representation in the 
Congicsa elected midway in the presidential term. 



The Democratic Reference Book. 205 

Under the apportionment of the Congressional representation each State is 
entitled to as many electors as it has Representatives and Senators in Congress. 
Each State must have at least one Congressman Under this rule the States of 
Wyoming, Idaho, North Dakota, Montana and Nevada each have one vote in 
Congress, irrespective of population. South Dakota will have two Representa 
tives in Congress. Each of these States has two United States senators, and 
therefore each of them, except South Dakota, will have three electoral votes, 
irrespective of population. South Dakota will have four electoral votes. Wash- 
ington with its two Congressmen, will have four electoral votes. 

The Constitution of the United States provides that at the end of every 
decade there shall be an enumeration of the people in all the States and Terri- 
tories for the purpose of apportioning to the different states their respective 
number of Representatives and Delegates. It is provided that each State shall 
have at least one Representative, and each Territory one Delegate to Congress. 
The Delegates cannot vote, and have a voice only in matters affecting their own 
Territory. 



In the re-apportionment of Congressmen among the different States, it is 
provided that if any State is allotted more than the representation of the pre- 
vious decade and the Legislature of the State shall refuse, or on account of 
holding biennial sessions shall be unable to re-apportion the State in Congres- 
sional Districts according to the re-allotment, the extra Congressman or Con- 
gressmen would be elected by the whole State at large. The allotment by Con- 
gress in 1880 gave New York 34 Representatives instead of 33 allotted in 
1870. General Slocum, of Brooklyn, was elected Congressman- at- Large upon this 
rule in 1882 by a plurality of 105,000 over Howard Carroll the Republican can- 
didate. 



In States where the population isnot disturbed by immigration, like Kentucky 
or Vermont, the ratio of votes cast to the number of inhabitants is one vote tb 
every five This rule would not hold good in New York City for the reason that it 
is a great commercial port and easy of access from every pertion of the world. 
Not only is there a lar^e number of foreign commercial agents and visitors 
residing temporarily in the city, but there is an immense body of unnaturalized 
immigrants who have not been here long enough to become citizens. 



NEW YORK CITY. 

At this year's election in New York City, 67 officials are to be chosen in 
addition to the State officers. The list includes 5 Judges, 2 Congressmen, 7 State 
Senators, 24 Assemblymen, 25 Aldermen, 3 Coroners and a Civil Justice. 



Of recent years Westchester County has steadily increased its Republican 
vote, and has*steadiiy diminished its Democratic majority. In 1885 the Demo- 
cratic majoritv was 1.400. In 1886 it was cut down to 800." In 1887 it went down 
to 250. In 1888 it gave a mixed result. In 1889 was elected a Republican State 
Senator and three Republican Assemblymen. In 1890, McClelland, Dem., carried 
the First District by only 351 majority. Ryan, Dem., was elected in the Second 
through the factional fight between Rhodes and Carroll. The Third District 
elected a Republican. 



The total vote of the citv of New York in the presidential election of 1880, 
was 205,381. In the Presidential election of 1884 it was 227,847. In the Presi- 
dential election of 1888 it was 270,783. There is but little doubt that at the 
present ratio of increase of the city's population, the total vote in 1892 will 
exceed 300,000. 



The temperance vote cast in this State last year was 33,000. and the Socialist 
vote was 13,000. Toward the former New York City contributed L200, and 
toward the latter 5,000. Of the remaining fifty-nine counties of the State the 
Temperance party candidates got more votes than the Socialist party candi- 
dates in fiftv-eight. In Kings County the vote was close, temperance vote 
being 1,619, and the Socialist 1,669. 



206 The Democratic Reference Book. 

There will be 887 polling places in the city this year, 60 less than last year, 
when then- were 947. In 1889 there were 1,047. 



In 1883 the vote in this city for Secretary of State was : Carr, Rep., 68.580 ; 
Maynard, Dem., 91,991; Prohibition, 708, and Greenbacker, 439. The vote of 
the' State stood: Carr, 416,108; Maynard, 427,525; Prohibition, 18,816, and 
Greenback. 7,221. 



It is mandatory for the Boar 1 of Police Commissioners in New York City to 
allow any party casting 50.000 votes to have an inspector at each polling place 
in the city limits. The County Democrats last year had no separate State ticket 
in the field and no local candidates for offices to be chosen by the whole city. 
The Police Board therefore allowed the organization no inspectors. In 1886 
Henry George for mayor polled 67,000 votes. In the following year the Labor 
party* was allowed inspectors. In 1888 none were appointed under the law 



ABOVE THE HARLEM. 

Last year's election in North New York was a warm, bitter and closely con- 
tested fight for the office of Commissioner of Street Improvements. The place 
was created by the Legislature of 1890. The term was for six years and the 
salary was fixed at $5,000. The patronage was considerable, consisting of a full 
force of engineers, clerks, inspectors and laborers. The' salaries alone are 
$20,000, while the sum appropriated by the city for the pay and supplies of the 
engineers is $50,000 additional, and the appropriation in the case of roads and 
avenues in the district is $170,000 more. Altogether, the Commissioner has the 
disbursement of a quarter of a million dollars annually. 

Previously all this work had been under the Department of Public Parks. 
Since June 1st the Commissioner of Street Improvements has been in fact another 
Commissioner of Public Works above the Harlem. 

The candidates were Louis F. Haffen and Louis J. Heintz. Hafien was the 
Tammany candidate. Heintz left the Tammany Hall organization and as an 
independent was elected by the aid of the Republicans of the district, thus de- 
feating the plans of the Tammany district leader, Henry D. Purroy. 

In November of this year wili occur the election of a justice of the Tenth 
District Court to succeed Judge Rogers, a Purroy man. In the fight of six years 
ago Judge Rogers, the "Onion Democratic candidate, received 3,217 votes. 
Anthony Hartman, Irving Hall, got 905 votes, and Matthew P. Breen, now Clerk 
of the Court, had 605. The Republicans had two nominees, one of whom received 
2 548 and the other 1,557. With gharmony the Republicans would have carried 
the district. 

The Civil Judge to be elected has jurisdiction over both wards of the Twenty- 
fourth Assembly District, the same as Commissioner Heintz. The term of office 
is the same (six years). The salary is $6,000. 

The two annexed wards were made part of the city of New York by the 
vote of the citizens residing in them, in 1873, but the general tendency of legis- 
lation since has been to separate them from the rest of the city, politically as 
well as territorially. The Harlem river divides them. Thus Civil Judges will 
be elected in all the other districts in 1893, but in North New York in 1891. 
Every other district of the city votes for a New York candidate for Congress. 
North New York elects a Westchester County man, and thus has no part in the 
oity fight. More than this, the Twenty-fourth District, though by no means the 
largest in the city, has two Aldermen, one for the Morrisania end and one for 
the Ford'-am end. It is the only district not in the jurisdiction of the Depart- 
ment of Public Works, having, under Heintz, its own local Department of Pub- 
lic Works : and though it furnishes much business to the police courts and has a 
police tribunal of its own. it has no representative on the police bench of this city. 
Nor is t 1 is all. Tin; Twenty-fourth District goes to make part of the Eleventh 
Senate District, where a Senator is to be chosen this year, but the Democrats 
within its boundaries have never had the naming of a Senator. In 1879 JohnB. 
Husk in ;* North New York man. ran as a Tammany candidate for Senator, but 
was beaten by a Republican. W. W. Niles. a North New York man, ran in 
1883, and wan beaten. Since then all the nominees for Senator, in all theparties, 
heen choaen from the lower end of the district, the Seventeenth having 
held the Senatoi ship for six years, the Nineteenth district for four. 



The Democratic Reference Book. 207 

ELECTION DAY WORKERS. 

In every election district of every assembly district on election day there are 
men for each party who are engaged" to hustle hesitating and dilatory voters to 
the polls. It is an old system, arid pretty nearly everybody knows what sort of 
a man the election day worker is — whether yon call him ward politician or. a 
henchman, and whether he is Republican or Democrat. He is at the polls to get 
votes for his party candidates by any means that necessity demands and the law 
permits. He is a valuable man on that day. 

The election day worker is a man who knows hosts of the people in his ward. 
According to the size of the election district, there may be three, seven, ten, 
twenty or more workers for each party. Each group is commanded by the 
hustler of greatest experience, widest acquaintances and shrewdest nature. He 
is called the captain. He and the captains of the other election districts are 
responsible to the assembly district leaders. The leader roams through the 
district wherever he thinks best. The underworker and the captain look after 
their own districts. 

There are thousands of men required in the service. On election day they 
must be at their posts by 4 a.m. From that hour until the time when the returns 
are in at night or the next morning this army of politicians has a busy, an ex- 
citing, and a long, arduous experience. Some of the incidents of tire day are 
disagreeable. Late in the afternoon it may be found that a wealthy citizen has 
failed to vote. The captain of the district calls upon the recalcitrant. Quite 
frequently the voter will be testy and take the call as an impertinence. But the 
captain must do bis duty. 

The men who do this work embrace many men who are possessed of wealth 
and position. There are many others who are not wealthy, yet hold posi- 
tions of trust in large houses, " In taking an active part in a political can- 
vass they are performing the duty of a citizen. 

Don't forget that they are working for the interests of their party. 



FIRST DAYS REGISTRATION. 

The first day's registration took place this year only a few days before this 
book went to press. The result for this year, 1891, does not show as large a 
ratio of voters registered to the probable vote to be cast as the corresponding 
day's registration for the election of 1885 to the vote cast in that year. 



PROBABLE VOTE IN NEW YORK CITY THIS YEAR. 

The increase in the number of votes from 1876. when Tiiden ran against 
Hayes, un to 1888. when Cleveland ran against Harrison, was 99.478, or an aver- 
age annual increase of 13,104, or 48.396 per cent. This increase would make the 
vote in 1890— if the election for President had been held in that year— 296.992. 
The falling off in the vote for Governor in 1885 from the electoral ticket in 1884 

was 12.142. That per cent, subtracted from 296.992 

or 270,783 multiplied by 12.142, equals 35.9u6 

Probable vote 1891 261,066 



THE CENSUS FIGURES. 

The summary of population in the State of Xew York as given below was taken 
from Census Bulletin, ISo. 116 issued October 8. 1891, by Superintendent Kobert 
P.Porter. Under the census of 1880 the population returned for the State was 
5,082.871 ; under the census of 1890 the population returned was 5,997,854, an in- 
crease of 914,982, or 18 per cent, during the decade. 

The following summary shows the population of each county according to the 
censuses of 1890 and 1880, together with the increase or decrease during the 
decade :

AKE NOTICE. 

The second day's registration, complete in New York, indicates that a light 
vote will be polled. It shows that only 5,453 more voters were registered this 
yuiij than in 1890, when the total vote cast was only 217,000. 



The difference between the vote registered in the State last year and the 
vote thrown was, in round numbers, 461,000. St. Lawrence County, which regis- 
tered 21,000 voters, polled only some 11,000 votes. Other counties in the State 
showed a similar ratio of difference between the registration and the vote polled. 



As this book goes to press it is known that the nomination of David Boody as 
the Democratic candidate for Mayor in Brooklyn creates a vacancy in' the 
Second Congressional District. This district embraces the towns of New Lots. 
Flatbush, Flatlands, Gravesend. New Utrecht and the 8th, 9th, 12th, 22d, 24th 
and 25th wards of Brooklyn in Kings County.
